Maxwell had his 9 month check up yesterday and all looks good! He’s 18 lbs, 10 oz (50th %) and 28 inches long (75th to 90th %). His big ole noggin is 18.5cm around and he’s in the 95th % for head circumference! Must be those big brains. As Dr. Walley said, the 9 month checkup is when the babies really start checking him out…and Maxwell was definitely giving Dr. Walley the eye! He wasn’t too pleased when he first tried to come close but then warmed up to him pretty quickly. He was thinking this whole doctor thing wasn’t so bad until the end when the nurse with the needle came in. Ouch! At least it was only one shot this time.
I took some pics with my phone…because that’s what I do.
Maxwell was a little leary of Dr. Walley at first…or maybe he’s just mad because Dad is thumping him in the cheek with a tongue depressor!
Warming up to the doc…
Fun with Dad (he was forgiven for the tongue depressor incident)…
Looking very sad after that terrible shot…
Ending on a happy note…smiles with Momma!
Thank goodness for good reports from the doctor!
Yay for good doctor reports! Time is flying by!
Great report! I think I was closest in the weight guessing contest – what’s my prize? I think a big Maxwell smile would be the best prize!
Another great report Maxwell. I know you’re glad it was only one shot. For being so nice, it’s hard to believe Dr Walley likes to give you these shots!
